It is great that it is pet friendly-including the outdoor areas of restaurants! In the down side the designated pet rooms are on the lower level like a daylight basement. Our room stunk like a dirty dog. Thankfully, upon our request the staff moved us to a nice room on floor 3. We ate both dinner and breakfast at The Tavern. Dinner was fine. Breakfast was delicious! Hotel parking is hard to find when the restaurants are busy.

First time at McMenamins

We loved the gardens and the lessons in local history. We wish we had more time to enjoy it. We’ll be back!

An interestingly converted school and grounds. Staff were attentive and friendly. A much more interesting option than cookie cutter budget hotel chains.

The Facilities were cool. The Bars were fun to hang out and relax, and the food was good. The room was nice and had a home-like feel. The 3 things that got to me was the lack of a mini fridge, and the chairs in the room were like ones from an old dining set. They were nice looking, but not comfortable at all. This led to sitting on the bed rather then the chairs and that didn't leave support for the back. Therefore I ended up not spending a lot of time in the room. The last thing was the shower. It was very small. That being said, I could deal with that, but the water pressure was barely more then flicking water with your fingers. I've seen it rain harder then that in the PNW. With those 3 things being the exception, it was a good stay.

Unique and charming Hotel with adjoined restaurants and grounds. Old converted schoolroom so rooms are a bit sparse. Wifi was horrible so not good for business stay.

Beautiful gardens & grounds. Friendly & helpful staff. Great drinks at Nui Nui, the tiki bar above the pool. Room was large and comfortable; however, the bed pillows were ready to be replaced. I was looking forward to enjoying some time in the pool, but I was disappointed to find the pool really crowded due to swimming lessons. Overall, it was a nice stay and I liked how McMenamins repurposed an old school and created a unique experience for guests that included local history and fun artwork throughout hotel & restaurants.

It’s ok

Really cool place. Kind of a destination hotel. Front desk staff was super. Would have given better review but service at the restaurants was horrid. Started at NuiNui and left after 15 minutes of absolutely no service. Went to the Woodshed and was getting ready to leave when I was finally acknowledged. Food was fine but nothing to write home about

Great stay for couples.

The Anderson School is a great location. Beautiful garden area to just sit, enjoy a beverage or meal. The pool is very nice too. Love the tiki bar!! Always enjoy our stays at the McMenamins locations.
